[Pierrot] Legrand, Paul. (1816 - 1898). Signed CDV Photograph. A rare carte de viste photograph by Daligny of Paris, with a handwritten dedication and signature of the celebrated French mime as his signature character, Pierrot. Dedication to Madame Berthus dated 3 September 1859 or 1869, signed "P. Legrand". In good condition, with signature rather faded, some light scuffing and discolouring, two pin-holes at upper part of mount (marginally touching photo).
Born Charles-Dominique-Martin Legrand, he was a highly regarded and influential French mime who turned the Pierrot of his predecessor, Jean-Gaspard Deburau, into the tearful, sentimental character that is most familiar to post-nineteenth-century admirers of the figure.
